they both have something to loss if it fails and nintendo can take all the credit (cause thats whts going to happen even if sony works with them) if it succeeds eventhough sony talked 3D first.


Have you ever heard of the Virtua Boy?

Ironically, those were some huge glasses!

lol at sony fans STILL trying to convince people that 3D glass-free TVs are not coming anytime soon and that they will be expensive as hell.

you all DO GET the fact that Nintendo is using 3D technology that Sharp MADE FOR TVs BEFORE BIG N EVEN STARTED WORKING ON 3DS, RGHT?

you all DO GET the fact that Sharps 3D glasses-free screens for ebooks, netbook, cellphones, TVs, mobiel TVs, tablets(they've announced 3D glass free touchscreens) will be manufactured THIS YEAR FOR SHARP AND OTHER COMPANIES LIKE NINTENDO.


as a nintendo and sony fan i could careless about 3D, so don't categories all sony fans it devalues your point.

Okay guys the main reason people dont like wearing 3d galsses is because it makes you look goofy right? Well we all have to admit playing the wii or any motion device makes you look goofy as well. Im just saying if people are willing to use an imaginary steering wheel then they can wear 3d glasses too without a problem.

I think moreso that by next gen of consoles 3d glasses will be old. 

Why buy into a tech now that is about to go in 2 years?

There are prototype TV's at shows which are wowing audiences more than the 3d glasses TV's. And you dont have to where glasses. 

You obviously cant see the 3d in the video I'm posting, but this is a Tv with the 2 lenses as part of the screen. It lays on top of the picture slightly raised. The TV is built in such a way you cant notice it. 

Therefore you have imagary popping out of the screen without wearing glasses. Because the entire screen is the glasses.

THIS IS THE FUTURE. THIS ISNT FAR AWAY. Why would anyone in their right mind spend £1800 on the cheapest 3dHDTV now in my country when these TV's are gonna show up in 2-3years. Possibly sooner. 

Sony has made a mistake here for me. Pushing 3d now on consoles. The exact same existing films etc will work with these TV's to. They are at all Gadget show events and have the largest buzz. So any money put into KZ3, GT5 etc etc is wasted right now. People will wait. I am. 

Even moreso, is that many companies, Phillips, Panasonic, Samsung are all doing 3dTV's without gkasses. The basic ideals is that 3DTV without glasses is mainstream 2015. It's 2011 next year. Sony are pushing now to make you buy a TV and then buy another. Reports suggest no glasses is better looking to and in HD.

Sigh @ Selnor.

 

You do realise that the PS3 will be able to display 3D on glasses-less TVs too, right?  Just like any movies getting released in 3D right now.

So how is getting KZ3, GT5 or any other current 3D ready games nothing but a waste of money?

 




Becasue they are treating unsuspecting consumers with money as stupid.

Get them to buy a new 3dTV that needs glasses in December or April next year for £1500. Then in 3 years get them to rebuy a 3dTV for the same price that doesn't need glasses.

Sony should have put there efforts into Glassless Tech. Not pushing Glasses tech now for a couple of years to shoot everyone down.

They know exactly what they are doing. It's very poor to consumers. 

Releasing so many games First party in 3d is testamont to this. Becasue they have to buy a 3dTV for this feature to work. And the extra dev time and money on the game to do this is again testamont to them sucking the consumer dry.

I urge everyone to wait for the real deal.



every company does that. its nothing new. its just like buying a new game console every 5 yrs. tech gets better a new console comes out . see nothing new.

Consoles dont cost you nearly £2000 for the cheapest model.

Well some nearly did this gen. ;)

true. but what i'm saying is that its the nature of the business, and thats something that won't change.

I find it rather funny that people are defending this article, 3D PS3 games can be played on glasses free 3D TVs, only issue is the people making glasses free 3D TVs isn't Sony, the whole idea is centering around Sony making various products that support their other products, so they must dismiss any comments that would break that cycle, it goes a bit like this.

Get a PS3 -> 3D Blu-rays and 3D games, if you have the 3D Blu-rays and games you need something to play it on so... 

3D games and movies -> 3D TVs, this is where they want you to buy THEIR TVs and various products they produce.

Nintendo states its more convenient to the user to have glasses free 3D, people are likely to listen... who makes glasses free 3D?  Nintendo with 3DS and Intel's 3D HDTV, and it breaks the cycle of buying Sony brand which isn't what they want.

Tease.

No to 3D Glasses! I have to wear glasses and it's a pain in the ass to stick another pair of glasses on top.

oh come on what a pathetic excuse.  if you can afford a 3DTV and all the accessories needed you can afford lasick surgery easy.  quit your bitching

 

obviously i'm joking



As probably the only person around here who's used 3D on the PS3 and 3D on the 3DS extensivel (maybe the only person who's done either) I can tell you it's a pretty big difference. Those shaded 3D glasses you're going to be wearing to use 3D on consoles dulls the picture, and are especially noticeable and uncomfortable if you, like me, wear glasses already.

The 3DS is the most clear and crisp 3D I've ever seen, and there's zero image or color distortion. Obviously this requires you to somewhat center the image from your viewpoint, but I was able to hold it comfortably in numerous positions and get a zero-distortion picture. Whether Sony is happy about it or not, at the moment Nintendo has a technology that is better than their 3D technology, and cannot be used on 3D TVs because of the distortion from non-centered viewpoints.

It's too bad, but 3D with glasses is not a comparable experience, at the moment, to what the 3DS offers. It's not as comfortable, and it's not as effective.

Edit: As for people touting glasses-free TVs, those do not function. You have to be within 10 degrees of the center of the TV to get a clear picture on them, which obviously makes their use in a living room setting... well, nonexistent. Those will never take off under current technology used in them. They are trash.
